Korg MS-20 - Endless random triggered space loop

Another 'endless' loop...

The noise generator is used to get a random trigger. This trigger is also used for clocking the sample & hold using the EG2 reversed output.
Later on the MG is clocking the sample & hold combined with a slower random trigger.

If you're interested check out the patch info below:

KNOBS:
VCO1: [Rectangle] [very narrow] [16']
VCO2: [Rectangle] [-2/-3] [2']
PORTAMENTO: [0]
VCOMIX: [10] [ 0] [10] [ 0]
HPF: [ 2] [ 5] [10] [ 0]
LPF: [ 5] [ 8] [10] [ 0]
MG: [(max to the right)] [8]
EG1: (n/a)
EG2: [0] [0] [10] [5] [0]
ESP: [6] [(n/a)] [(n/a)] [(n/a)] [5]

ESP Note: Only SIGNAL IN and TRIG OUT are used. SIGNAL LEVEL (about 6) and THRESHOLD LEVEL (about 5) is a very precise combination. Each SIGNAL LEVEL requires the appropriate THRESHOLD LEVEL. Changing the SIGNAL LEVEL will change the interval for the random trigger. The THRESHOLD LEVEL changes the length of the trigger.

USED PATCHES:
(random trigger:)
1. NOISE GENERATOR (WHITE) -> ESP (SIGNAL IN)
2. ESP (TRIG OUT) -> (TRIG IN)

(random sounds:)
3. ENVELOPE GENERATOR 2 (REV OUT) -> SAMPLE & HOLD (CLOCK)
4. NOISE GENERATOR (PINK) -> SAMPLE & HOLD (IN)
5. SAMPLE & HOLD (OUT) -> VOLTAGE CONTOLLED OSCILATOR 1 (TOTAL)

(later:)
Replace 3. by MODULATION GENERATOR (OUT RECTANGLE) -> SAMPLE & HOLD (CLOCK)

Well..If synths could gave serious gas...It would kinda sound like this. Great stuff! As Bob Ross would say:"lots of happy accidents"

@thrcman

LOL.

Yeah, but only if they die...

You know, before the MS-10/MS-20 revival these machines were the poor kids' 2600 or modular, with their 12dB filters being looked down upon. So as soon as you saw a chance of upgrading, you did.

But yes, I weep over every synth I ever sold, especially the MS-20, even though the newbought ones always were more advanced and more expensive (and my workplace later paid for them as well, yeeehah!).

@v8bert You know people go to hell for selling their ms-20, right?

[v8bert]

Country Music will never be the same again. ;-)

Great work!

Why did I sell my good ole MS-20? (tear in eye corner)

If any one will be able to predict the next step of this 266e copy, it will be the Borg!

RESISTANCE IS FUTILE!
